"I think so. Whether it's a daughter or a son, it's actually useless. The only person you can truly rely on for life is a husband and wife who will be your companions in old age." Xiao Chen followed Chen Jisheng's words.
"You kid, don't try to insinuate things with me! If you have anything to say, just say it." Chen Jisheng said.
"Old man, to be honest, I also think Sister Lin is a good person. You see, she is virtuous, diligent, literate, and alone... The most rare thing is that she can get along with a stubborn old man like you. ." Xiao Chen also spoke frankly.
"So?" Chen Jisheng snorted.
"So I think you two are quite suitable. You are both lonely people, and you just depend on each other. I won't hide it from you, old man. I sent someone to investigate Sister Lin's life background in detail. Apart from marrying Yu Feihu, she is really She is clean and innocent, and the folks in the village have a good reputation and they all say she is a good woman." Xiao Chen said.
"Sigh... you brat, you are really dishonest." Chen Jisheng said, "Actually, this is all unnecessary. How can you, a good guy or a bad guy, hide it from me?"
"You see, old man, as you said, there are not many people who can fall in your fancy." Xiao Chen was not lying, because he himself was not in Mr. Chen's favor.
"Alas...boy, what do I not understand about you? My husband is nearly sixty years old. He has white hair and a blue shirt. He has accomplished nothing. His sleeves are full of breeze. Yue'er has a red face and red sleeves. He is in the right age and has both talent and appearance. The two of us , It’s not a good match.” Chen Jisheng sighed.
"Old man, it's really hard for you to follow me to this old north. Your hair is all white from exhaustion but you don't even have any honors. I really feel..." In order to highlight his emotions, Xiao Chen also used He put some saliva on his fingers and wiped his eyes, pretending to shed tears.
"It's useless to say these frivolous words. You are better than anything else if you make progress!" Chen Jisheng became angry when he saw his virtue.
Playing tricks in front of my old husband again!
"Isn't it right for people to feel sorry for you?" Xiao Chen was very angry.
"Do you think I'm doing this for you? I'm doing this for the nearly one million people in Yanyun County! I work hard but I feel at ease. You are such a big man but you don't even have a sense of responsibility. What do you think of Yanyun County? The common people in the county, the brothers under your command, and the officials from top to bottom are eagerly watching you make a difference..."
"What do you want me to do? I'm tired every day, let me tell you!" Xiao Chen feels that he has enough to worry about. Do you think I am willing to be the boss and the governor?
"You are so tired! Are you tired and you still have time to think about women? Let me ask you, what is your relationship with that Ren Tiantang in Paradise Island? What do you mean by giving her so many gifts? How old is she? How old are you? ?I heard that his son is already a teenager. You said you..."
"You don't have to worry about my private life, old man!" Xiao Chenxin said, which brat told the old man about this?
Damn it, I have a spy by my side! I must be found out and punished severely...
"I don't care about you, who cares about you?" What Chen Jisheng said makes sense, because apart from his old man, there really is no one who can care about Xiao Chen.
"I advise you to mind your own business first!" Xiao Chen said loudly.
The quarrel between the two became more and more intense, and the sound became louder and louder. The brothers outside were accustomed to it, and they pretended not to hear it.
"Master Chen, Master Xiao, can I give you two a pot of hot tea?" Lin Shuangyue walked in gently and said cautiously.
"No, just drink herbal tea. Herbal tea will relieve the heat!" Chen Jisheng said.
"How old are you to be so angry? Sister Lin, I'm really grateful that you took such good care of the old man these days when I was away." Xiao Chen was extremely polite to Lin Shuangyue.
"Isn't this my duty as a servant?" Lin Shuangyue said with a smile.
"Oh, Sister Lin, you may have misunderstood. We have never regarded you as a servant! You work hard, and I will pay you a salary. We have an equal employment relationship." Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Master Xiao, are you being polite to me, a poor man... Master Chen, how many times have I told you that you can't drink herbal tea! It's easy to get sick, but you just don't listen." Lin Shuangyue said and poured out the herbal tea quickly. He poured it out and made another pot of tea for the two of them.
"Oh, what a pity. This is the Mingqian Longjing. I drank it once and then poured it out?" Chen Jisheng felt distressed.
This is the Shifeng Mingqian Longjing that Duanmu Nanfeng gave to Xiao Chen. I only gave it a pound in total, so you know how precious it is.
Xiao Chen couldn't bear to drink it and gave it to Chen Jisheng, and Chen Jisheng was also reluctant to drink it. But when Lin Shuangyue saw it, he said that he didn't drink new tea. Did he have to drink it after it was old?
That makes sense.
So I made him a pot every noon and night. Chen Jisheng didn't say anything. If it were Liu Xiangqin, would you give it a try?
I will definitely scold my daughter for being a prodigal...
"Gee, I have never seen such a stingy high-ranking official, but I think that food cannot bring disaster, but these teas, wines, etc. are nothing. Just drink what you need. If you drink it until it is in your stomach, it is not a waste. ." Lin Shuangyue said.
"Really?" Chen Jisheng said happily, "It just so happens that Xiao Chen is back. Can you make me two more bars tonight?"
"Look at you, didn't we agree to drink two taels a day? No matter what guests come, they can't exceed the limit, and neither can Mr. Xiao." Lin Shuangyue's glare was really charming.
Chen Jisheng didn't dare to look at her, he just smiled and nodded vaguely, like a child who had done something wrong.
"Master Xiao, there is something I have to tell you because it is my duty. Why don't you give Mr. Chen meat?" Lin Shuangyue said to Xiao Chen.
"Huh? Oh, I don't blame Xiao Chen for this. I heard them say that older people should not eat meat and eat more light foods." Chen Jisheng said hurriedly.
"Is this what the ignorant person said?" Lin Shuangyue said, "You work so hard every day, how can you only eat vegetables and not meat? Besides, a man who doesn't eat meat has no strength, how can he have the energy to do things? Don’t say you are old. You are not yet sixty years old. Why are you old? The eighty-year-old man in our village still eats fat pig fat!"
"Did you hear that! What Sister Lin said is the truth! When Wen Shanchang asked you to eat more meat, you just didn't listen!" Xiao Chen said and turned to Lin Shuangyue, "Sister Lin, in fact, it's not that the old man doesn't like it. When it comes to eating meat, he always says that the people of Yanyun are still very miserable. Many of them eat vegetables and whole grains, and he can't swallow it if he is asked to eat meat..."
"Mr. Chen, what's missing from you? Besides, don't you do things every day just to make our Yanyun people's lives better and better? If your body breaks down and you can't do anything, then you will suffer in the end. Are you not a common person? You don't think about it, whether it's big or small?" Lin Shuangyue spoke unkindly to Chen Jisheng.
Xiao Chen clicked his tongue and admired, what a great Sister Lin, every word she said was to the point!
